Grants Management Training

As part of the mission to reduce commercial motor vehicle crashes, FMCSA provides financial assistance to States and other partners through various grant opportunities—including the Commercial Driver’s License Program Implementation (CDLPI) and High Priority (HP) grant programs. Complete the eLearning courses below and review the additional resources to learn more about these programs, the grants management lifecycle, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Guidance, and how FMCSA grants can help you meet your safety goals. While these materials are geared toward CDLPI and HP grant applicants, much of the information is also relevant for other FMCSA funding opportunities. By reviewing the eLearning courses and additional training resources, you can be prepared to apply for and manage FMCSA grants and partner with FMCSA to keep our roads safe.
